This is the beginning of Chanel understanding who she is. It is really quite transformative to hear her go from managing the chaos in January, to learning to overcome it by the end of one crazy year. Chanel is learning to follow her heart, to listen to the voice inside her and take all the opportunities to become the person she hopes to one day be. The opportunities range from learning about a new religion to trying fried ice cream, both of which ended up being a big part of my whole life.
